Chipping Away

That’s my strategy.

I just keep chipping away, doing what I can when I can and it’s keeping me sane.

This morning I published the #wycwyc podcast and Carla and I recorded next weeks. Yesterday I posted a new smoothie idea with a video on GreenLiteBites. The rest of the day was spent on the phone either figuring out logistics for FitBloggin or talking with Woman’s Day who’s writing a story about my weight loss and #wycwyc.

The day seemed to fly by as I jumped from task to task. When the kids came home. We grilled.

And then took Ryan to his spring concert. He was singing in the chorus. (I don’t know how I’m not going to cry through every event in these boys’ lives — I’m such a sap!)

Right now I’m watching Survivor with the family and it’s the perfect ending to a busy day.
